Lyrics:

Dont Cry My Baby, Dont Cry All The While
dont Cry My Baby, Just Give Me A Smile
seen My Daddy Die In The War
seen My Mamma Die Cryin For
a Ring A, A Ring A, But Ive Got To Sing
a Ring A, A Ring A, But Ive Got To Sing
they Call Me A Hound-Dog
they Call Me A Swine
its All Because Of My Colour
for Their War Though Im Fine
a Ring A, A Ring A, But Ive Got To Sing
a Ring A, A Ring A, But Ive Got To Sing

theyre Talkin bout Freedom, Of Religion And Race
but If Youre A Negro They Slap You In The Face
a Ring A, A Ring A, But Ive Got To Sing
a Ring A, A Ring A, But Ive Got To Sing
so Whats The Use To Fightin For That Sacred Democracy
when The Ku Klux Klan Murdrers Are Going Scot-Free
a Ring A, A Ring A, But Ive Got To Sing
a Ring A, A Ring A, But Ive Got To Sing

but Im Still Happy, So Dont Cry My Babe
together Well Strife For Bein Free People Some Day
oh Ring, Ring, So Weve Got To Sing
ring, Ring, Together We Will Sing
